Nathan Aké leaves Manchester City to join Fenerbahce


Dutch defender Nathan Aké left Manchester City on Friday to join Fenerbahce as the Istanbul club look for a first Turkish league title in thirteen seasons.

Fenerbahce announced the signing on its social media accounts without providing details of the transfer fee or contract of 31-year-old Aké.

The club said Aké will take part in training after a break after the World Cup. He will reunite with former Man City goalkeeper Ederson who is still at the World Cup with Brazil.

Fenerbahce starts its Champions League qualifying campaign on July 21 or 22, at home to Górnik Zabrze in the first leg of the second qualifying round. The second leg is a week later in Poland.

Aké spent six seasons under Pep Guardiola at Man City, winning the Champions League in 2023 and the Premier League four times.
